Thanks, yes they are 24mm thick. I am going to phone up Eurocell today for a quote

Thanks, oh yes I will certainly be fitting myself - I require supply only. Also I still have the original windows that went in so it's just a case of measuring up

I have just installed a second hand lean-to conservatory, I want to replace the existing three double glazing windows on the right-hand side panel with plain white PVC panels, as this side is against a wall & does not require windows (one of which is broken anyway) Do these panels have a unique...

Thanks - yes we have a Megger at work I can borrow. I'm pretty sure everything is disconnected - but like I said it has seen a lot of bodging by previous owners! there is no pattern to the sockets at all - they are spread out all over the place, some in conservatory, some in loft & upstairs o_O lol

Hi all Electrical section, I have a problem with one of my ring mains - it keeps tripping the main RCD, I spent the whole of saturday narrowing it down to which one & I have now disconnected it from the consumer unit, as to get house up & running again. The house has a conservatory & loft...

Yes I know ;-) I can get a good quality stove fairly cheap (< £350) not going to bother anyway. going to put my full budget into the one in Conservatory - that's the most needed one!

Safely say I'm not going to bother! - well not yet anyway, maybe look into it more before next winter. I would like a solid fuel burner though - I can put one in my conservatory though as that place is a nightmare to heat!. been looking into it there is an ideal spot for one so I will do that...

Access in loft to chimney breast (if required) very easy. Large front drive. I thought if I could get it done for 1000 or less I was going to go for it. I wouldn't want anything fancy regarding a stove, just something plain/black with sufficient heat output for a medium sized lounge I would...

Jibbereish to me mate all that sorry - I'm a 20 year time served electrical/electronics engineer lol. Its basically standard council built 1950's semi-detached. And there is a 5" flexible flue going up the existing chimney

Cheers, yes thought that would be the case :( Any rough/approx cost of a complete new flue liner installation to suit a solid fuel fire?

I currently have a bog-standard gas fire in my lounge, I would like to install either a wood-burning or multifuel fireplace My chimney has been fitted with what looks like a 5" metal flue liner - so basically my question is can I replace my gas fire with a wood burning or multifuel fire...

Yes I can post a picture. The overflow has now been sorted - no longer dripping on continuous basis & has a longer pipe on. I've been reading a Bleach soloution works well

Can anyone help me choose a product/method please, Basically the brick/mortar gable end of my house is very stained - particularly where an overflow was dripping down the wall for months before I moved in - there is a lot of green limescale or mildew & a 'white' substance - this is covering a...

Thankyou. Yes the pump is now wired directly to the pump outlet of the boiler & It hasn't made any difference, in fact it seems to have made it worse!. Unfortunately I'm not a heating engineer - I'm an electrical/electronics engineer, so the wiring part is childs play to me, but I really...

Anyone? Is it worth investing in a new controller PCB? - as the 'margin' of error on the thermostat increase to when it locks out and not is so tight

Well I'm not saying so - that's why I'm asking for help & advice on here ;-) I can only tell the symptoms how they are now & that it's been wired like that since I moved in 4 years ago & it's always worked ok (apart from when I needed a new expansion vessel which cured an old problem) it...

I will rectify this at the weekend, I've only just noticed it. I have been in the house 4 years & it's been working fine wired like this. Like you said if this was the main problem - it would be locking out at any setting, that's why there is something else up too

Hi all, I have a Potterton Suprima 100 with the dreaded lock-out problem. Basically, in ONLY locks out when you turn the thermostat on the boiler up past say half way It NEVER locks out when you keep the thermostat at say '3:00' or lower. I have already replaced the temperature sensing...

Thanks to everyone who responded. In the end I went for a Stuart Turner 2.0 bar Techflo at £158.99: http://www.screwfix.com/p/stuart-turner-techflo-tp-s-2-0bar-positive-head-twin-shower-pump-2bar/1053d Fitted it & it's absolutely perfect!, the rain head shower pressure is superb, but...

I can find out the shower make model. Another major factor people seem to forget when recommending stuff - budget! - I cannot stretch to a S/T Monsoon model currently, I'm looking for a cheaper compromise based on the single shower application (that isn't going to have horrendous use, as...
